This one was fun to fly, film and edit.
Trying to come up with a standard set of 10 videos to chronicle a construction build.

It cracks me up. That is the term construction industry uses for this phase.

Nice capture.
What are you using to fly this mission (bird & software)?

Upload your video to hivemapper.com, the public version is free. Your videos would make a cool 3D map.

Awesome! I work for a general contractor who specializes in building apartments and do something similar with my drone. Great editing!

I use Litchi and have three waypoint missions that fly the same route at 30, 60 and 200 feet. I do all my editing in Filmora 9.0 as its easy to use as I am not a skilled video editor.

Here's one I'm doing in Beverly Hills, CA with a Litchi Waypoints mission that includes a low pass across the front and a high orbit.
The reason I chose Litchi is because it does a great job of aiming the camera down to the POI.

This is about half way through a 1 year project.
Soon they will be done with concrete and start with the steel frame.

Nice work! Cool effects. What editing SW are you using and how do you get the morphing effect between cuts as that’s pretty tight?!

I have the full Adobe Creative Suite so I cut with Premiere Pro CC 2018.
I could have done the morphs in Adobe After Effects, but to keep it simple, I created them right on the timeline in Premiere.



Being shot with the same waypoints mission on each visit, they were close, but I would place clips, match position frame-by-frame till I'm in the same X-Y-Z location in both then compare and zoom & position both clips from last frame of one to first frame of the next as necessary to make them blend as smooth as possible before applying the Morph Cut action.

The more you do video post production, the more you realize that you have to work really hard to make it look easy - but its worth it.
